OSHA's Recordkeeping Standard has been in the news a lot this past year with a number of updates and proposals. With all of the noise, it's hard to know exactly what changes OSHA has made, is making, or will make in the future.

We'll cover the basics of Recordkeeping (including annual Feb 1. reporting requirements), best practices, recent updates and a look at what to expect in the near future. A Q&A session follows.

OHS Free webinar for the month January-2016

Hazardous materials are used globally, and we have very culturally dynamic work forces. Varying chemical and pesticide hazard ratings between companies and industries can lead to confusion and incidents. In an effort to standardize our processes to prevent miscommunications and confusion, OSHA is integrating the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) into the existing HAZCOM 1920.1200 standard (HCS).

Varying hazard ratings and regulatory requirements for ‘chemicals, pesticide and other stuff’ that exists between industries, countries and regulating agencies (OSHA, EPA, DOT, CPSC, etc.) can lead to confusion and incidents.

This presentation will provide discussions and resources to simplify and clarify the similarities and differences between these entities’ requirements (GHS/HCS, WPS/FIFRA, FHSA, etc.).

Laundry concerns and chemical outcomes for workers using flame resistant garments will be dealt with including conflicting studies on off gassing and other rumors and some facts on multiple flame resistant fabrics.
